Resizing can be done using PHP's internal image libraries, or using
ImageMagick
or another third-party converter, e.g. GraphicMagick.
These latter converters support more file formats than PHP, which only supports PNG, GIF, JPG, XBM and WBMP.
Set
$wgUseImageMagick
to true to use ImageMagick instead of the builtin functions.
For more information on how to set up ImageMagick, see
Manual:Image administration#Image thumbnailing
.

You may also need to set
$wgImageMagickConvertCommand
to be able to use ImageMagick, although this is sometimes done automatically by the installer.
To fine-tune the output of ImageMagick, set
$wgSharpenParameter
and
$wgSharpenReductionThreshold
.
$wgJpegPixelFormat
sets YUV chroma subsampling mode for JPEG thumbnails to reduce file size.
Some old MediaWiki installations may have
$wgUseImageResize
set to false.
ImageMagick requires that this setting be set to true, or else it will not work.
